Description
See original bug description from RHEL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=818048 (agent/virtio messages don't wakeup the guest)
Hans proposed 2 solutions:
- Handling this at the qemu / spice-server level by dropping to server mouse mode on suspend.
2.1) Adding wakeup support to virtio-serial and 2,2) Adding a new agent message telling the client the guest has suspended / unsuspended and 2.3) Modifying qemu / spice-server to send this message and 2.4) Modifying the client to inhibit sending clipboard messages when the guest is suspended and 2.5) Modifying the client repeat the last relevant clipboard message after unsuspend
Given the obvious difference in complexity between the 2 solutions I vote for 1).
